Which choice completes the text so that it conforms to the conventions of Standard English?

A

in other fabrics.

B

those of other fabrics.

C

cotton grown in other regions.

D

other regions.

Correct Answer: C

Choice C is the best answer. The sentence compares "Egyptian cotton" (a material) to "cotton grown in other regions." This is a logical comparison.

Choice A is incorrect because it compares a noun to a prepositional phrase. Choice B is incorrect because "those" is plural, but "cotton" is singular/uncountable. Choice D is incorrect because it compares "cotton" to "regions."
